Middle school teacher accused of illicit student relationship

Spring Branch school officials have fired a middle school teacher after an investigation into an alleged inappropriate relationship with a student, district officials said on Wednesday.

Kathryn “Camille” Murray, who taught three years at Memorial Middle School, was removed after an initial report was made by a faculty member to the school principal on Feb. 13, according to a news release from the district.

Murray, who taught eighth-graders, was removed from the campus at 12550 Vindon that day, officials said.

“The safety of every SBISD student is our very highest priority,” said Superintendent Duncan F. Klussmann. “This allegation, if true, represents a complete breach of trust that our children and our community place in our educators every day.”
